Long story short, it looks like we'll be buying a 3/4 ton diesel and a fifth
wheel (29 ft). The question is how important is having a long bed? I realize
they have slider hitches for the "short" bed, but my concern is how
inconvenient are they. Do you only have to activate them ...

The other night I was watching the end of " Last Comic Standing". I got up
to answer the call of nature. When I got back I sat down and watched  the
GOP convention for ten minutes before I realised  it wasn't still "The Last
Comic Standing"

Hey All,
My wife and I will be leaving on the 14th for a drive through southeastern Utah. I only have the 15-18 to see as much as
possible of the area. We'll be coming up the 15 from So Cal. We'll be boondocking  wherever we can since most of the

I said, "You probably don't want ceramic dishes rattling around as you go

Considering a new pickup purchase for tow vehicle.  I dont forcast towing a
hugemungeous, over the top, trailer, but then maybe.
We have about set on a Dodge, since cant seem to find any Chevy Duramax and

You may have heard of Alfred French, a swift-boat veteran who attacked
John Kerry in a commercial.  And later revealed that he wasn't present
at the incident but that "friends" were!
Anyway, he's been placed on paid leave from the local prosecutor's

RV regualtions differ slightly between US and Canada. I have an Onan 5.5
generator in my 5er. Like the subject says, how can I check to see if I have
an automatic transfer switch? After I start the gererator, it takes about 15
seconds for the AC to kick in but I figured that was ...

I replaced the motor on my furnace (class C motorhome) and since then it
will not work. Now the motor wouldn't run before. Fan blows and I can hear
it clicking trying to light but it does not light.
Question: When checking the coach battery it only shows as being in the fair

Thanks.
